Analyzin' miss clairol, fendi'd down mascara on, assistant manager in paragon
In high school, I worked at Abercrombie & Fitch, and once I graduated from business school at USC, I started a company with my partner and had a nine-to-seven job.
My first job was working Saturdays in Sports Soccer in Newcastle. I only used to work three or four hours a week, so it wasn't a huge amount, but I do remember spending the first pay I got on a new pair of trainers.
I got turned onto the 'Pat Garrett' soundtrack when I worked retail back in the day.
If athletics wasn't an option, I'd probably work at like a surf shop in Hawaii on the beach, just dishing out surf boards.
I applied to drama school when I was about 18 and didn't have any luck anywhere. They basically turned me away and said I had a bit of growing up to do. I went back to Aberystwyth and did my growing up by spending eight months working in Peacocks.
I worked at Suncoast Video for two years during the summer in high school.
I worked at Ikea as a customer service rep for two years and loved it.
I remember my first job, when I was working in a retail store down there, growing up in Laurel, Mississippi. I was making, like, $2.15 an hour. And I was taught how to responsibly handle those customer interactions.
I worked for a big department store, and strangely, on my first day, they put me in charge of Christmas wrapping. I didn't know how to wrap a present and make it not look like it fell off a truck.
I used to actually work in a comic book stores in New York.
I'm so obsessed with Apple, and the chance to work with the people who really created Apple retail is the retail opportunity of a lifetime.
I had a job for a year, working in a high-quality whiskey-and-wine shop.
If you're Ronan Keating, who was working in a shoe shop when I discovered him, but end of thinking you're George Michael, then you need to be stopped.
I was working at Nordstrom Rack, Borders Books, and I was cleaning yachts on the weekends for private parties and being a busboy. I had to break down the tables and roll the forks up in napkins. And I was still doing standup.
I went through a Billy Idol phase. I had white hair when Peter Rizzo hired me at Barneys.
I worked at Sears in the Woodfield Mall as a gift wrapper. I'm actually a great gift wrapper, and the customers were so nice to me. I was only 16, and eventually Sears put me in customer service because I was so friendly.
I worked at Bergdorf Goodman doing interior decoration.
I worked at a Books-a-Million in Louisville for several years.
I was pulling in $80 a week after taxes working in a frozen yogurt store.
I worked at Big 5 Sporting Goods, selling shoes and stuff like that, for a couple of summers.
I had a Saturday job in Barratts shoe shop at the age of 15.
I'm a writer who stacks cat food for a living. It's true: I have a master's degree in creative writing, I've published two critically successful books, and I get paid to replenish the shelves of my local food co-op with pet food, sponges and toilet paper. Nine days out of 10, I do it quite happily.
After leaving school, I got a job in a department store not dissimilar to Grace Bros in 'Are You Being Served?'
I worked at a school supply store as a cashier.
